Did it get, you know, a little too tough, you know, for Princess Caroline? She’s never had to work for a damn thing in her entire spoiled privileged life, so its no surprise to me that she bailed when things got tough.

the same day Hillary is confirmed?

This doesn’t surprise; the gov is probably giving her the option of quitting before naming someone else.

Teddy had a seizure. She's gonna wait for him to either croak or resign, and she'll grab that. Much less controversy.

I guess Cuomo, Rahm and the DNC wanted more money than Caroline wanted to spend. (eye roll)

I think it was a party decision. Cuomo is much stronger and Paterson knows it. But it wouldn’t surprise me if he puts in someone VERY unexpected..
